Hello!
This v2 series re-implements RCU Tasks Trace in terms of SRCU-fast,
reducing the size of the Linux-kernel RCU implementation by several
hundred lines of code. It also removes a conditional branch from the
srcu_read_lock_fast() implementation in order to make SRCU-fast a bit
more fastpath-friendly. The patches are as follows:
1. Permit Tiny SRCU srcu_read_unlock() with interrupts disabled.
2. Re-implement RCU Tasks Trace in terms of SRCU-fast.
3. context_tracking: Remove
rcu_task_trace_heavyweight_{enter,exit}().
4. Clean up after the SRCU-fastification of RCU Tasks Trace.
5. Move rcu_tasks_trace_srcu_struct out of #ifdef
CONFIG_TASKS_RCU_GENERIC.
6. Create an srcu_expedite_current() function.
7. Test srcu_expedite_current().
8. Add noinstr-fast rcu_read_{,un}lock_tasks_trace() APIs.
9. Update Requirements.rst for RCU Tasks Trace.
10. Deprecate rcu_read_{,un}lock_trace().
11. Create a DEFINE_SRCU_FAST().
12. Create an rcu_tasks_trace_expedite_current() function.
13. Test rcu_tasks_trace_expedite_current().
14. Make grace-period determination use ssp->srcu_reader_flavor.
15. Exercise DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU_FAST() and init_srcu_struct_fast().
16. Exercise DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU_FAST() and init_srcu_struct_fast().
17. Require special srcu_struct define/init for SRCU-fast readers.
18. Make SRCU-fast readers enforce use of SRCU-fast definition/init.
19. Update for SRCU-fast definitions and initialization.
20. Guard __DECLARE_TRACE() use of __DO_TRACE_CALL() with SRCU-fast.
21. Mark diagnostic functions as notrace.
Changes since v1:
o Consolidate RCU Tasks Trace cleanup patches per Alexei Starovoitov
feedback. This explains the decrease from 34 patches in v1 to
only 21 in this v2 series.
o While consolidating, consolidate the noinstr-fast patches and the
DEFINE_SRCU_FAST()/init_srcu_struct_fast() patches.
o Upgrade comments per Peter Zijlstra feedback.
o Extract Tiny SRCU bug fix into its own commit per Andrii Nakryiko
feedback.
o Switch srcu_expedite_current() from preempt_disable() to
migrate_disable() for PREEMPT_RT kernels per Zqiang feedback.
o Apply tags.
